Machine hum, of jacuzzi jets; the hissing, of expiring bubbles.

The gods speak, in a hotel bath; breathing answers, to wordless questions.

I am shown, the face of history; as the meaning froths, beneath my sight.

Okay so downside: his name is Sijo, not Enormous Bob

Upside: I can now create my own comics character named Enormous Bob.

In quiet, my sickness rears; body accepting, the time to feel.

In action, it lies low again; body borrowing, future strength for the task.

Sudden cough, escapes my prickling throat; with night has come, a bill long due.

The quiet, of an untread cave; not silence, but stillness of sound.

Water flows, in dark places; unseen by eyes, untouched by light.

Stalactites, grow their thousand-year trees; soft chanted dripping, slowly alive.

I have completed reading 9 books in October. I may finish one more before Saturday night! No wonder I’m feeling content! I finished two poetry collections, a classic German novel, a ridiculous rom-com, a best selling author memoir… and more. I learned a new form of poetry. (Sijo) 💜📚

Our rivers, bend but do not broaden; so for every gain, there is also a loss.

A part of us, is left with every step; each shore visited, a tomb of memories.

Recalling, the paradox of Theseus; we are not the ship, but the sea.

The wind blows, in a warm high place; what more could, a tired soul ask for?

I blew bubbles, instead of tears; water too precious, under the tropic sun.

Steam will rise, from the kettle in moments; and I will recall, drifting fragments.

The temples, are the lizards’ now; each step a throne, for noontide sprawl.

Ruin, means little in nature; except the freeing, of more surface area.

Both alike, in their love of the sun; the dead and reptiles, worshipping still.

As I watch, your gentle breath; a shadow falls, from beyond this night.

The dusky line, fades my now to plans; our room dimming, with challenges unmet.

But starlight, shines from your every pore; and though the dark grows, I am not lost.

Beneath the waves, there is no rain; nor wind to shiver, the sea-soaked skin.

If not for, that tyrant breath; we might wile away, the storms in our salt pools.

The best roof, lies hidden beyond our shore; such is the Eden, we sold for steps.

Coastal hem, bluer than sky; the salt seems clean, and air impurity.

White clouds plume, the spray of the sky; heavenly garden, of rain-heavy mushrooms.

Black curtains, trail their windborne wake; the water hardens, to jadestone green.

Oh butterfly, so beautiful; do you worry, about your purpose?

Surely, your colors alone; must please Heaven, to look down upon.

Could it be, that mankind is also pleasing; just for being, the way we are?

In ti boš tesno med plastmi,
zemljo presijale ti bodo oči
in tvoje oči bodo rasle v svet,
nad njimi vzhod z zatonom spet.
Nad zemljo sinje sinje nebo,
kot da vse mrtve oči vanj sijo,
in z roko v roki nevidni vsi,
v živem koraku mrtvi zveni.

Something cries, in the summer night; with a voice, I take for human.

Flashlight search, finds all in bed; I turn from the stare, of the black windows.

Katydids, chant their enigmatic verse; the loud silence, of August dark.
